Secret Model Diet Tips

Fashion models are known for having lean, toned bodies and being thin, fit and trim. There are many techniques used by professional models to help maintain their slender bodies and ensure the longevity of their modelling careers. Women who are interested in achieving that "model-like" physique might be interested in some of the secret model diet tips that are shared by professional fashion models worldwide.

Hard-Boiled Egg Diet

According to celebrity fitness trainer David Kirsch, a popular diet among celebrity actresses and models is a hard-boiled egg diet. Certain models and actresses restrict themselves to limited meals per day that consist only of hard-boiled eggs. This is believed (by models) to be a quick way to shed excess pounds and is often practised in the days preceding major events and photo shoots. Kirsch recommends adding a protein shake and almonds to this method for increased nutritional value.

Fasting

Fasting (the deprivation of food) is another commonly practised secret model diet tip among Hollywood stars and celebrity models. The stomach will rapidly decrease in size when left empty for extended periods, and as a result will be able to contain less food when eating resumes, providing you don't overindulge and stretch the stomach. Though this is not a recommended practice due to the risk of malnutrition, many models apply fasting to their diet plans.

Laxatives

Over-the-counter laxatives are a popular dieting aid among fashion models. Ingesting laxatives as a diet aid prevents the large intestine from absorbing food and increases bowel movement activity, which essentially hinders bodily weight gain. Many models use laxatives in pill form, or liquid tea laxatives that help them to keep the extra weight of bodily refuse to a minimum. Green tea is a preferred diet aid among fashion models because it acts as a natural laxative and also an appetite suppressant.

Liquid Diets

Liquid diets and using fluids as a food replacement is a regular practice among celebrity models. Drinking a large glass of water or a cup of green tea is often a technique used to curb hunger pangs experienced by fashion models. Another effective and commonly used liquid diet for models is the "Master Cleanse," where models blend water, lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper and consume only this solution for a number of days. According to Beverly Hills personal trainer Gunnar Peterson, this is not a safe method for dieting. However, Beyonce Knowles and Jared Leto admit to having used this method and achieving the desired results.
